After a rather disappointing excursion to a nearby restaurant, my friend and I decided to explore the street for an alternative to our lunch.
Lo and behold, a very warm and modern eatery within our sights.
We were seated promptly and given extremely friendly service.
I ordered the veal sandwich with fries while my friend devoured (there was no sauce left at the end of meal due to meticulous consumption) the gnocchi. Tables around us were enamored with varieties of poached eggs, a delight that I will most certainly try next time.
I have to say, the price to quality ratio surprised me, especially in an area as Rosedale. Plus, despite the handsome decor, there was never a feeling of pretentiousness from the staff.
Avant Gout, thank you for salvaging my afternoon.
